A Non Plugged In Day
I have a tendency to be plugged in. It allows me to hyperfocus, be distracted, and feel like I accomplished something all at once. Being a father and husband can be frustrating because you aren’t moving at your speed but at the speed of others. So as an escape I plug in. My wife, being the patient person she is, reminds me of this regularly.
Today I was not plugged in. Today I was hyperfocused on cleaning and reorganizing my basement and parts of my upstairs. I accomplished most of this. The basement and part of the kitchen has been redone to better use the space. Foods we don’t eat everyday or even every week were taken down to new shelves my nephews and I put up.
Furniture was moved around and appliances were identified that we could do without. I even put a phone on ebay for sale. Our trash day this week is going to be a nightmare. At least 6 trips up to the curb from the basement.
Now it’s the end of the day and we have accomplished much. But there is still much to do to finish. That’s the hard part. Stopping.
